Hi Nairaland,

We will be in Abuja this summer and plan on travelling from there to Anambra for a couple of days and I wanted advice on the best mode of transport; plane or car? A car will take longer of course but my mum reckons it will be safer (she's vert nervous about those small planes) and I'm not so sure. The last time we drove that far was from Lagos to Anambra but that was years ago. Can anyone with recent experience offer some advice? Also if you reckon car, do you know of any good coach or shuttle services?

Thanks

Haba! How can you compare fried rice and palm oil rice?


Well, I recommend Anambra Express and The Young #myopinion

What are you going to do in Anambra?v ask your host there where anambra airport is located. If you you mum still don't like the small planes, she can charter one of emirates jumbo jets & boeing 747 to take her to Asaba or Enugu. If she still finds boeing 747 too small for her liking, I suggest she then charter a luxurious bus from one of the many transport companies littered in Abuja. Sorry I don't know how long it would take to get there by road. I hope this helps.

Okay, I should have made it more clear that by small planes I mean the intra-Naija flights. We've lost a few family members on those in the past so that's why my mum's not keen on them. We're not some bougie people looking for luxury.

Because fried rice and palm oil rice are the only options on table I know it sounds stupid because they are completely different but I just want some opinions on which one is safer. I should have mentioned that we've lost some fam on intra-Naija flights in the recent past so my mum's not keen on flying. I just wanted to hear from people that have travelled similar distances (and ideally to and from similar locations) what they would usually do. Thanks for the recommendation.

Ok. But let her understand that plane clashes not because it is small but because its an accident or faulty. People travel by helicopter on daily basis and those are really smaller than than what your mum referred to as small. Sorry about your relatives though.

Thanks for the condolences. I think it's more the airline services that fly intra-Nigeria than the size of them. They tend to be small which is why I described them that way. But you are right that any plane can be faulty.
